Concussion Recognition and
Management
 The game official is not responsible for the sideline evaluation
or management of the athlete after he or she is removed from
play If an appropriate health-care professional on the sideline
determines that the athlete HAS NOT suffered a concussion,
the athlete may return to play If there is no appropriate health-care professional available to
evaluate the athlete, the athlete SHOULD NOT be allowed by
the coach to return to play Athletes with continued concussion symptoms are at significant
risk for recurrent, cumulative and even catastrophic
consequences of a second concussive injury• SCHOOLS WILL DETERMINE “APPROPRIATE HEALTH
CARE PROFESSIONAL”
Heat Illness and Hydration
 31 high school football players have died from
heat-related causes since 1995 The vast majority of heat-related deaths are
preventable if specific steps are taken by coaches
and administrators Develop an Emergency Action Plan Allow athletes to acclimatize to heat and humidity Access to water should never be restricted Athletes should be encouraged to take in fluids
frequently before and after practices and games Practices should be scheduled at times during the
day that minimize exposure to heat and humidity-
Near midpoint of each quarter!
Sportsmanship and Public
Address Announcers
SPORTSMANSHIP
• Players, coaches, officials, cheerleaders,
game announcers, students and spectators
all play a vital role in the promotion of good
sportsmanship• It is essential that all individuals involved
understand that the playing field is an
extension of the classroom• Acts that are intended to engender ill will
toward individuals, have no place in the
educational activities-
